Hot Water Mode:
The appliance operates to supply only domestic hot water when
the heating temperature mode is fully anti-clockwise, at the position
or the timer is programmed to OFF mode.
The flow is limited within the appliance to give a hot water
delivery rate to a maximum of 9.0 (±15%) litres/minute-25Si or 10.0
(±15%) litres/minute-28Si.
Hot Water and
Central Heating
mode:
When a demand is made for
heating by the system controls
(i.e. a programmer or room
thermostat).
The pump will energise
circulating primary water
around the heating system
and the burner will light. The
heat output from the
appliance in this mode has
been factory set to maximum.
The appliance will operate as
necessary to maintain the
temperature of the radiators at
the level set by the adjustment
of the Heating Temperature
Control Knob. (See Fig. 2.)
If the system no longer
requires heat to maintain the
desired room temperature, the
burner will extinguish. The
pump will continue to run for
a short period to dissipate the
residual heat from the
appliance and then switch off.
The appliance will supply
heat to the central heating
system as required. A demand
for hot water at a tap or
shower will override the
central heating function for
the period of the domestic hot
water demand.

CENTRAL HEATING SYSTEM
During the first few hours of operation of the central heating
system, check that all radiators are being heated at an even rate.
Should the upper area of a radiator be at a lower temperature than the
base of the radiator, it should be vented by releasing air through the
venting screw at the top of each radiator. Make sure your installer
shows you how to carry out the operation. Repeated venting will
reduce the quantity of water in the system and this must be
replenished for safe and satisfactory operation of the appliance.
Should water leaks be found in the system or excessive venting be
required from any radiator, a service engineer should be contacted and
the system corrected.

OPERATION OF
CONTROLS
More than 30% of all calls made to our contact centre reporting
appliance faults or breakdowns prove to be false alarms, as there is often
a simple explanation for the apparent malfunction.
So, to help you save time and money – not to mention frustration
and inconvenience – please refer to the General Information, Notes and
Lighting Instructions ensuring all controls are set correctly.
If, after following the instructions the appliance still fails to operate
correctly call the Worcester Contact Centre. Arrangements will be made
for an engineer to call as soon as possible.
CALL-OUT CHARGES
All of our field service engineers are factory trained.
If you request a visit from an engineer and your appliance has been
installed within the last 12 months, no charge will be made for parts
and/or labour, providing:
The appliance was commissioned correctly on installation.
An appliance fault is found and the appliance has been installed
within the past 12 months.
A call-out charge will be made where:
The appliance has been installed for over 12 months, or
Our Field Service Engineer finds no fault with the appliance (see
note), or
The cause of breakdown is with other parts of your
plumbing/heating system, or with equipment not supplied by Worcester.
NOTE: Invoices for attendance and/or repair work carried out on
your appliance by any third party will not be accepted.
APPLIANCE FAILS TO
OPERATE
Fig. 2. Controls.
The appliance is fitted with the following controls:
OPERATING SWITCH
In the 0position there is no mains electricity to the control
board.
In the ‘I’ position mains electricity is connected to the control
board.
CENTRAL HEATING TEMPERATURE
CONTROL
The position of this knob will determine the temperature of the
water delivered to the radiators between fully clockwise and anti-
clockwise to the mark. When the knob is turned anti-clockwise
past the position towards the ‘’(Summer Position), then the
appliance will operate in the HOT WATER mode only and no heat will
be delivered to the radiators.
DOMESTIC HOT WATER TEMPERATURE
CONTROL
The position of this knob will determine the temperature of the
water delivered at the domestic hot water taps between fully
clockwise and anti- clockwise positions.
By slightly reducing the flow of domestic water from the tap, the
delivery temperature of the water will be further increased. This is of
particular advantage in the winter, for example to increase bath water
temperature and to remove heavy grease deposits on plates, etc. Also
this will provide an added advantage of reducing the delay before hot
water is obtained.
FACIA MOUNTED PROGRAMMER (if fitted)
Your installer may have mounted either a mechanical or an
electronic programmer into the facia of your appliance. Operating
instructions are supplied with the programmer.
RESET BUTTON
Press this button in for five seconds if the indicator light is
flashing slowly.
If indicator lamp is flashing fast turn power OFF and ON at the
boiler to reset.
SYSTEM PRESSURE GAUGE
The black needle will show the actual pressure in the system.
When operating the pressure indicated must not be greater than
2.5bar. If it is then contact your installer.

System pressure
gauge
The appliance must be fitted to a sealed heating system which is
pre-pressurised. Your installer will advise you on the minimum and
maximum pressure that should be indicated on the pressure gauge.
See Fig. 2. Check regularly that this pressure is maintained and
contact your installer or maintenance engineer if there is a permanent
significant drop in pressure indicated on the gauge. If the system loses
pressure it should be re-pressurised as instructed by the installer (N.B.
Maximum operating pressure 2.5 bar).

6
Your installer will
have provided adequate
space around the
appliance for safety and
servicing. Do not restrict
this space by the
addition of cupboards,
shelves etc. close to the
appliance.
NOTE: If the appliance is to be enclosed after the
installation then the instructions given in Section 6, Air
Supply, of the Installation Book MUST be followed.
ROOM THERMOSTAT
A room thermostat must be fitted for control of the central
heating temperature. It will be located in one room of the home. The
method of setting a room thermostat varies with the type and
manufacture. Refer to the instructions supplied with the room
thermostat.
THERMOSTATIC RADIATOR VALVES
If thermostatic radiator valves are fitted to the system then they
must conform to the requirements of BS2767. The radiator located in
the room where the room thermostat is sited must be controlled by a
thermostatic radiator valve.
SHOWERS, BIDETS, TAPS AND MIXING
VALVES
Standard hot and cold taps and mixing valves used with the
appliance must be suitable for operating at mains pressure.
Thermostatically controlled shower valves will guard against the flow
of water at too high a temperature.
If using a pressure equalising valve, set the Domestic Hot Water
temperature control knob to the ‘MAX’ position.
Hot and cold mains fed water can be supplied direct to an
overrim flushing bidet subject to local water company requirements.
With all mains fed systems the flow of water from the individual
taps will vary with the number of outlets operated simultaneously
and the cold water mains supply pressure to the property. Flow
balancing using ‘Ball-o-Fix’ type valves is recommended to avoid an
excessive reduction in flow to individual outlets.
For further information contact The Worcester Technical
Helpline.
HOT AND COLD FLOW
If the flow of water demanded from both hot and cold service
outlets is dependent upon mains supply, it may not be possible in
some installations to operate all outlets simultaneously.
WATER MAINS FAILURE
It is important to note that in the event of a mains water supply
failure, no tap water will be available until the mains supply is
restored. The appliance can still be used for heating provided that the
system is of the sealed system type.
10
TO LIGHT THE APPLIANCE
Check that the water valves to the central heating circuit are open.
Check that the black needle on the pressure gauge is not below
the required pressure.
Switch on the mains electricity. Set the room thermostat to
maximum. Turn the central heating temperature control knob fully
clockwise.
The burner will light and the red flame detection indicator will light.
Set the central heating and hot water temperature control knobs
and the room thermostat, if fitted, to the desired temperature.
TO STOP THE APPLIANCE
For Short Periods
Turn the central heating temperature control knob fully anti-
clockwise to the ‘O’ position.
For Long Periods
Turn the operating switch to the ‘O’ position. Switch off the
mains electricity.
A facia mounted electronic programmer will retain its settings for
about two weeks, after which it will return to the factory set
programme. The time will be saved for approximately 7 hours. The
display will disappear after approximately 1 hour.
A facia mounted mechanical programmer will require resetting
once the operating switch has been set to ‘O’, or the mains supply has
been disconnected.
ELECTRICITY SUPPLY
FAILURE
If the electricity supply fails the appliance will not operate. Once
the supply is restored the appliance will return to normal operation. If
a programmer is fitted, check that the settings have been maintained.
OVERHEAT CUT-OFF
THERMOSTAT
The appliance will enter a lockout condition in the event of
overheating.
An overheat cut-off thermostat is fitted to the appliance which
will interrupt the electricity supply to the gas valve.
If the overheat cut-off has operated, the fault indicator will flash
once a second. If this condition continues to occur, then call a service
engineer.
The appliance can be reset by pressing the fault indicator button
and holding in for 5 seconds when the appliance has cooled.
7
USE IN HARD WATER AREAS
Normally there is no need for scale protection. However, in areas
of exceptionally hard water supply it is recommended that an In-Line
scale inhibitor be fitted.
Installation should be strictly in accordance with the
requirements of the local Water Company. An isolating valve to
facilitate servicing should be incorporated.
The water hardness may be determined using the standard test
paper or by reference to the local Water Company.
Further information may be obtained from The Worcester
Technical Helpline.
VENTILATION OF ROOM SEALED FANNED
FLUE (RSF) APPLIANCES
These are room sealed appliances and any ventilation openings
in a wall or door must not be obstructed. Do not allow the flue
terminal fitted on the outside wall to become obstructed or damaged.
NOTE: Do not place anything on top of the appliance.
If the appliance is fitted in a compartment do not use the
compartment for storage purposes unless it conforms to the
requirements of BS 6798:1987: Section 6. It is essential that the airing
space is separated from the boiler space by a perforated non-
combustible partition as described in BS 6798:1987.
CIRCULATING PUMP
This may be fitted with a speed adjuster. If so it will be factory
set at maximum and should not be changed.
FROST PRECAUTIONS
If the appliance is not to be used for a long period of time and
there is a likelihood of freezing, then the appliance should be drained.
The Worcester Technical Helpline will advise you on suitable frost
precautions. For short periods the built-in frost protection of the
appliance will be adequate.
SERVICE
Annual servicing is important in order to ensure continuing high
efficiency and long life for your appliance. In the event of any
difficulty in making suitable servicing arrangements, Worcester
personnel or other competent persons will discuss regular servicing
arrangements and offer a comprehensive maintenance contract.
WARNING
If a gas leak exists, or is suspected, turn off the gas supply to the
appliance at the service cock and consult your local service engineer.
Do not touch any electrical switches to turn them either on or off.
Open all windows and doors. Do not smoke. Extinguish all naked lights.
CLEANING
Do not use abrasive cleaners on the outer casing. Use a damp
cloth and a little detergent.
Under no circumstances should any seal on the boiler be broken.
IGNITION LOCKOUT
The appliance will enter a lockout condition in the event of the
burner failing to ignite.
If the burner fails to light after 5 attempts the electricity supply
to the gas valve will be interrupted.
If ignition lockout has occurred, the fault indicator will flash
slowly (approximately once per second).
The appliance can be reset by pressing the reset button and
holding in for 5 seconds. Check that the gas supply has not been
interrupted.
If this condition continues to occur, then call a service engineer.
AIR FLOW DEVICE
The appliance will enter a lockout condition in the event of an
air flow fault.
If the controls fail to detect the correct air flow through the
appliance the electricity supply to the gas valve will be interrupted.
If an air flow fault has occurred, the fault indicator will flash
(approximately five times per second).
The appliance will try to re-light after a waiting period of

Your installer will
have provided adequate
space around the
appliance for safety and
servicing. Do not restrict
this space by the
addition of cupboards,
shelves etc. close to the
appliance.
NOTE: If the appliance is to be enclosed after the
installation then the instructions given in Section 6, Air
Supply, of the Installation Book MUST be followed.
ROOM THERMOSTAT
A room thermostat must be fitted for control of the central
heating temperature. It will be located in one room of the home. The
method of setting a room thermostat varies with the type and
manufacture. Refer to the instructions supplied with the room
thermostat.
THERMOSTATIC RADIATOR VALVES
If thermostatic radiator valves are fitted to the system then they
must conform to the requirements of BS2767. The radiator located in
the room where the room thermostat is sited must be controlled by a
thermostatic radiator valve.
SHOWERS, BIDETS, TAPS AND MIXING
VALVES
Standard hot and cold taps and mixing valves used with the
appliance must be suitable for operating at mains pressure.
Thermostatically controlled shower valves will guard against the flow
of water at too high a temperature.
If using a pressure equalising valve, set the Domestic Hot Water
temperature control knob to the ‘MAX’ position.
Hot and cold mains fed water can be supplied direct to an
overrim flushing bidet subject to local water company requirements.
With all mains fed systems the flow of water from the individual
taps will vary with the number of outlets operated simultaneously
and the cold water mains supply pressure to the property. Flow
balancing using ‘Ball-o-Fix’ type valves is recommended to avoid an
excessive reduction in flow to individual outlets.
For further information contact The Worcester Technical
Helpline.
HOT AND COLD FLOW
If the flow of water demanded from both hot and cold service
outlets is dependent upon mains supply, it may not be possible in
some installations to operate all outlets simultaneously.
WATER MAINS FAILURE
It is important to note that in the event of a mains water supply
failure, no tap water will be available until the mains supply is
restored. The appliance can still be used for heating provided that the
system is of the sealed system type.
10
TO LIGHT THE APPLIANCE
Check that the water valves to the central heating circuit are open.
Check that the black needle on the pressure gauge is not below
the required pressure.
Switch on the mains electricity. Set the room thermostat to
maximum. Turn the central heating temperature control knob fully
clockwise.
The burner will light and the red flame detection indicator will light.
Set the central heating and hot water temperature control knobs
and the room thermostat, if fitted, to the desired temperature.
TO STOP THE APPLIANCE
For Short Periods
Turn the central heating temperature control knob fully anti-
clockwise to the ‘O’ position.
For Long Periods
Turn the operating switch to the ‘O’ position. Switch off the
mains electricity.
A facia mounted electronic programmer will retain its settings for
about two weeks, after which it will return to the factory set
programme. The time will be saved for approximately 7 hours. The
display will disappear after approximately 1 hour.
A facia mounted mechanical programmer will require resetting
once the operating switch has been set to ‘O’, or the mains supply has
been disconnected.
ELECTRICITY SUPPLY
FAILURE
If the electricity supply fails the appliance will not operate. Once
the supply is restored the appliance will return to normal operation. If
a programmer is fitted, check that the settings have been maintained.
OVERHEAT CUT-OFF
THERMOSTAT
The appliance will enter a lockout condition in the event of
overheating.
An overheat cut-off thermostat is fitted to the appliance which
will interrupt the electricity supply to the gas valve.
If the overheat cut-off has operated, the fault indicator will flash
once a second. If this condition continues to occur, then call a service
engineer.
The appliance can be reset by pressing the fault indicator button
and holding in for 5 seconds when the appliance has cooled.
7
USE IN HARD WATER AREAS
Normally there is no need for scale protection. However, in areas
of exceptionally hard water supply it is recommended that an In-Line
scale inhibitor be fitted.
Installation should be strictly in accordance with the
requirements of the local Water Company. An isolating valve to
facilitate servicing should be incorporated.
The water hardness may be determined using the standard test
paper or by reference to the local Water Company.
Further information may be obtained from The Worcester
Technical Helpline.
VENTILATION OF ROOM SEALED FANNED
FLUE (RSF) APPLIANCES
These are room sealed appliances and any ventilation openings
in a wall or door must not be obstructed. Do not allow the flue
terminal fitted on the outside wall to become obstructed or damaged.
NOTE: Do not place anything on top of the appliance.
If the appliance is fitted in a compartment do not use the
compartment for storage purposes unless it conforms to the
requirements of BS 6798:1987: Section 6. It is essential that the airing
space is separated from the boiler space by a perforated non-
combustible partition as described in BS 6798:1987.
CIRCULATING PUMP
This may be fitted with a speed adjuster. If so it will be factory
set at maximum and should not be changed.
FROST PRECAUTIONS
If the appliance is not to be used for a long period of time and
there is a likelihood of freezing, then the appliance should be drained.
The Worcester Technical Helpline will advise you on suitable frost
precautions. For short periods the built-in frost protection of the
appliance will be adequate.
SERVICE
Annual servicing is important in order to ensure continuing high
efficiency and long life for your appliance. In the event of any
difficulty in making suitable servicing arrangements, Worcester
personnel or other competent persons will discuss regular servicing
arrangements and offer a comprehensive maintenance contract.
WARNING
If a gas leak exists, or is suspected, turn off the gas supply to the
appliance at the service cock and consult your local service engineer.
Do not touch any electrical switches to turn them either on or off.
Open all windows and doors. Do not smoke. Extinguish all naked lights.
CLEANING
Do not use abrasive cleaners on the outer casing. Use a damp
cloth and a little detergent.
Under no circumstances should any seal on the boiler be broken.
IGNITION LOCKOUT
The appliance will enter a lockout condition in the event of the
burner failing to ignite.
If the burner fails to light after 5 attempts the electricity supply
to the gas valve will be interrupted.
If ignition lockout has occurred, the fault indicator will flash
slowly (approximately once per second).
The appliance can be reset by pressing the reset button and
holding in for 5 seconds. Check that the gas supply has not been
interrupted.
If this condition continues to occur, then call a service engineer.
AIR FLOW DEVICE
The appliance will enter a lockout condition in the event of an
air flow fault.
If the controls fail to detect the correct air flow through the
appliance the electricity supply to the gas valve will be interrupted.
If an air flow fault has occurred, the fault indicator will flash
(approximately five times per second).
The appliance will try to re-light after a waiting period of
approximately 5 minutes Check that the flue terminal has not been
obstructed or damaged.
If this condition continues to occur, then call a service engineer.

CENTRAL HEATING SYSTEM
During the first few hours of operation of the central heating
system, check that all radiators are being heated at an even rate.
Should the upper area of a radiator be at a lower temperature than the
base of the radiator, it should be vented by releasing air through the
venting screw at the top of each radiator. Make sure your installer
shows you how to carry out the operation. Repeated venting will
reduce the quantity of water in the system and this must be
replenished for safe and satisfactory operation of the appliance.
Should water leaks be found in the system or excessive venting be
required from any radiator, a service engineer should be contacted and
the system corrected.

APPLIANCE FAILS TO
OPERATE
Fig. 2. Controls.
The appliance is fitted with the following controls:
OPERATING SWITCH
In the 0position there is no mains electricity to the control
board.
In the ‘I’ position mains electricity is connected to the control
board.
CENTRAL HEATING TEMPERATURE
CONTROL
The position of this knob will determine the temperature of the
water delivered to the radiators between fully clockwise and anti-
clockwise to the mark. When the knob is turned anti-clockwise
past the position towards the ‘’(Summer Position), then the
appliance will operate in the HOT WATER mode only and no heat will
be delivered to the radiators.
DOMESTIC HOT WATER TEMPERATURE
CONTROL
The position of this knob will determine the temperature of the
water delivered at the domestic hot water taps between fully
clockwise and anti- clockwise positions.
By slightly reducing the flow of domestic water from the tap, the
delivery temperature of the water will be further increased. This is of
particular advantage in the winter, for example to increase bath water
temperature and to remove heavy grease deposits on plates, etc. Also
this will provide an added advantage of reducing the delay before hot
water is obtained.

base of the radiator, it should be vented by releasing air through the
venting screw at the top of each radiator. Make sure your installer
shows you how to carry out the operation. Repeated venting will
reduce the quantity of water in the system and this must be
replenished for safe and satisfactory operation of the appliance.
Should water leaks be found in the system or excessive venting be
required from any radiator, a service engineer should be contacted and
the system corrected.

OPERATION OF
CONTROLS
More than 30% of all calls made to our contact centre reporting
appliance faults or breakdowns prove to be false alarms, as there is often
a simple explanation for the apparent malfunction.
So, to help you save time and money – not to mention frustration
and inconvenience – please refer to the General Information, Notes and
Lighting Instructions ensuring all controls are set correctly.
If, after following the instructions the appliance still fails to operate
correctly call the Worcester Contact Centre. Arrangements will be made
for an engineer to call as soon as possible.
CALL-OUT CHARGES
All of our field service engineers are factory trained.
If you request a visit from an engineer and your appliance has been
installed within the last 12 months, no charge will be made for parts
and/or labour, providing:
The appliance was commissioned correctly on installation.
An appliance fault is found and the appliance has been installed
within the past 12 months.
A call-out charge will be made where:
The appliance has been installed for over 12 months, or
Our Field Service Engineer finds no fault with the appliance (see
note), or
The cause of breakdown is with other parts of your
plumbing/heating system, or with equipment not supplied by Worcester.
NOTE: Invoices for attendance and/or repair work carried out on
your appliance by any third party will not be accepted.
APPLIANCE FAILS TO
OPERATE
Fig. 2. Controls.
The appliance is fitted with the following controls:
OPERATING SWITCH
In the 0position there is no mains electricity to the control
board.
In the ‘I’ position mains electricity is connected to the control
board.
CENTRAL HEATING TEMPERATURE
CONTROL
The position of this knob will determine the temperature of the
water delivered to the radiators between fully clockwise and anti-
clockwise to the mark. When the knob is turned anti-clockwise
past the position towards the ‘’(Summer Position), then the
appliance will operate in the HOT WATER mode only and no heat will
be delivered to the radiators.
DOMESTIC HOT WATER TEMPERATURE
CONTROL
The position of this knob will determine the temperature of the
water delivered at the domestic hot water taps between fully
clockwise and anti- clockwise positions.
By slightly reducing the flow of domestic water from the tap, the
delivery temperature of the water will be further increased. This is of
particular advantage in the winter, for example to increase bath water
temperature and to remove heavy grease deposits on plates, etc. Also
this will provide an added advantage of reducing the delay before hot
water is obtained.
FACIA MOUNTED PROGRAMMER (if fitted)
Your installer may have mounted either a mechanical or an
electronic programmer into the facia of your appliance. Operating
instructions are supplied with the programmer.
RESET BUTTON
Press this button in for five seconds if the indicator light is
flashing slowly.
If indicator lamp is flashing fast turn power OFF and ON at the
boiler to reset.
SYSTEM PRESSURE GAUGE
The black needle will show the actual pressure in the system.
When operating the pressure indicated must not be greater than
2.5bar. If it is then contact your installer.

System pressure
gauge
The appliance must be fitted to a sealed heating system which is
pre-pressurised. Your installer will advise you on the minimum and
maximum pressure that should be indicated on the pressure gauge.
See Fig. 2. Check regularly that this pressure is maintained and
contact your installer or maintenance engineer if there is a permanent
significant drop in pressure indicated on the gauge. If the system loses
pressure it should be re-pressurised as instructed by the installer (N.B.
Maximum operating pressure 2.5 bar).

Hot Water Mode:
The appliance operates to supply only domestic hot water when
the heating temperature mode is fully anti-clockwise, at the position
or the timer is programmed to OFF mode.
The flow is limited within the appliance to give a hot water
delivery rate to a maximum of 9.0 (±15%) litres/minute-25Si or 10.0
(±15%) litres/minute-28Si.
Hot Water and
Central Heating
mode:
When a demand is made for
heating by the system controls
(i.e. a programmer or room
thermostat).
The pump will energise
circulating primary water
around the heating system
and the burner will light. The
heat output from the
appliance in this mode has
been factory set to maximum.
The appliance will operate as
necessary to maintain the
temperature of the radiators at
the level set by the adjustment
of the Heating Temperature
Control Knob. (See Fig. 2.)
If the system no longer
requires heat to maintain the
desired room temperature, the
burner will extinguish. The
pump will continue to run for
a short period to dissipate the
residual heat from the
appliance and then switch off.
The appliance will supply
heat to the central heating
system as required. A demand
for hot water at a tap or
shower will override the
central heating function for
the period of the domestic hot
water demand.
